The verbatim data are correct (http://www.gbif.org/occurrence/296527908/verbatim), and the location on the map is matching those. Confusingly though, the coordinates to the right of the map in the Locations block (underneath "Camliyayla SW/ Alanyali Koeyue, Turkey") show coordinates in the sequence of lon/lat instead of the conventional lat/lon. Supposedly this is a generic issue, not specific to this record.

Suggest to change the display of corrdinates to lat/lon.
